Heinz 57

Why the hell does this stuff cost $5 a bottle?  It's just zesty catsup.

[Big Tom]

I have no idea.  I mostly use leftover ketchup packages from fast food restaurants.

[fourbizz]

Because it has raisins and anchovies in it.

[Hookemdown.]

Or is it just zesty ketchup?

He might be thinking about another run for president. ;D

Just like fishing equipment, it's not all created equal. I have tried other brands, but always go back to Heinz. I guess I'm a ketchup snob. :

To clarify, Burley appears to be talking about Heinz 57 which is a ketchup-y cooking sauce sold by Heinz. It is different than regular Heinz ketchup (or at least it is marketed that way)

That was my first impression...Anyone need a Senator from MA?

A1 is where it's at but it's overpriced just like Heinz 57. I've wondered this same thing about both of them for years. Hell, if a restaurant brings you a bottle of A1, as soon as you leave they grab it like it's a gold bar.

I always cringe when anyone dumps Heinz or A1 onto a fine steak.

I do have an outstanding pot roast recipe that calls for Heinz 57 as one of the main ingredients.

[FishingBuds]

All it is, is catsup with pepper in it

Thanks Dan:

I like the ketchup. Can take or leave the steak sauce. At $5 I will probably leave it.

I also prefer their ketchup.

Why would anyone put kutchup on anything?

[frogtog]

Because it's good for you. It has lycopene in it.

Ketchup on a big medium-rare cheeseburger is one of life's simple pleasures.  8-)

[1inStripes]

If you see me add A1 to a steak, its not a quality steak.

[SirSnookalot]

Those sauces are pretty decent, but on a quality steak ( that you can't buy in market, only sold at packing houses for restaurant & hotel use) I marinate them in zip sauce.

Heinz 57 for burgers

A-1 for roastbeef sammiches

+1 to if I add either to a steak, it is not a good steak
